Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of nurse-led interRAI-based multidisciplinary team management on body composition and metabolic parameters among elderly patients with metabolic syndrome.Methods:100 elderly patients aged 60-74 with the diagnosis of metabolic syndrome were randomized into control group ( n=50) and study group ( n=50). The control group was followed up after routine physical examination. Based on interRAI assessment, the study group received nurse-led individualized intervention which integrated management regarding geriatric internal medicine, clinical nutrition, psychology and physical rehabilitation. This 12-week study measured body composition indexes body protein, body fat mass (BFM), skeletal muscle mass (SMM), body mass index (BMI), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) and biochemical indexes [triglycerides (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c)] on the first day and 12 weeks after enrollment and compared those parameters between the two groups. Results:After 12 weeks of intervention, compared with the control group, the study group showed significantly increased body protein [(10.48±2.02) kg vs (9.72±1.65) kg, P=0.043], SMM [(29.61±6.07) kg vs (27.36±4.96) kg, P=0.046], BFM [(17.86±3.42) kg vs (19.64±5.07)kg, P=0.042], WHR (0.88±0.05 vs 0.89±0.03, P=0.021) and TG [(2.31±0.42) mmol/L vs (2.95±0.52) mmol/L, P=0.014]. There was no significant difference in BMI [(25.06±3.41) kg/m 2vs (24.40±2.48) kg/m 2, P=0.272], HDL-C [(0.94±0.10) mmol/L vs (0.91±0.31) mmol/L, P=0.246] and HbA1c [(6.11±0.51)% vs (6.37±0.42)%, P=0.185]. After 12 weeks of intervention, body fat [(17.86±3.42) kg vs (20.71±5.98) kg, P=0.004], WHR (0.88±0.05 vs 0.91±0.05, P=0.001), TG [(2.30±0.42)mmol/L vs (2.75±0.37) mmol/L, P=0.032] and HbA1c [(6.11±0.51) mmol/L vs (6.35±0.63) mmol/L, P=0.015] in the study group were significantly lower compared with baseline and there was no difference in those parameters at baseline and 12 weeks after enrollment in the control group. Conclusion:The nurse-led multidisciplinary management model based on interRAI assessment can effectively improve the body composition and certain metabolic indexes of the elderly with metabolic syndrome.
